CrawlSpace DIY Question with Drawing

Most corrugated pipe installs seem to be around the perimeter of the house. I have identified that I have slight water flow through the middle of my house most likely due to slope and /or the gutter jettison. My gutters go into the ground with corrugated pipe, but don't know where they go after that. This has led me to wanting to get into crawl space to install a sump pump/french drain system as I am not sure if the gutter is indeed the issue or not. I have created a diagram, but not sure if I should connect a catch basin with pipe to connect the "Signs of Water Flow " in the middle of the house pic as most corrugated pipe installs I have researched show to go on the perimeter of the house. Pic can be found here

I would concentrate on figuring how to keep he water from entering the crawl space in the first place. Is it surface water? Can the area be graded to direct the water away or around the building?
